    I purchased this to use in correlation with playing and learning guitar. I am pro Android and have avoided Apple, however, a fair amount of music apps, tools etc do not work with Android. So, after a few years of fighting it, I decided to finally buy Apple. I also have a Galaxy tab which I've enjoyed and Ill compare this to that. Honestly they act mostly the same. Hence the 4. The primary difference is the UI and you either like Apple UI or you don't. Tablet is responsive, looks great, very low latency in connecting the guitar. I can't stand Apple's security measures, took me forever to actually link my account and login. I feel like Apple suffers from security paralysis. However, once I got that worked out, my fingerprints are registered, my password reset and Im good to go. Everyone knows Apple makes good stuff, the real test will be longevity. I will say that I prefer the look and feel of this over my Samsung. What I dont like are the volume buttons and the fingerprint reader. The volume buttons switch function when you turn it sideways, so what was "down" when vertical, becomes "up" when horizontal. The fingerprint reader is at the top of the device, near the camera. Why not have the fingerprint reader in close proximity to where your hands would be if you were holding it like a book.

    I just replaced my old IPad Pro 10.5 to a this newer model and I am very happy. Apple ( if you reading this ) the IPad needs the battery health monitor from the IPone.
